As Amazon keeps growing its popularity among online shoppers with over 98.07 million active users accessing it at least once a month (Statista, 2021), more and more business owners want to launch their products on this marketplace.

Driven by the desire to be part of the online sellers that make at least $1,000 per month, many business owners end up setting up their virtual booths on Amazon without having a clear strategy or a strong knowledge of the platform.

The result:  Failure.

The truth nobody likes to talk about is that selling on Amazon is hard. You just don’t enter a highly competitive selling marketplace but you also need to keep up with Amazon’s fast-paced environment.

‍To be successful on Amazon, you must be able to master different areas of the platform rapidly. From learning how to rank your products within Amazon’s unique algorithm, manage your inventory correctly, and launch successful paid campaigns to creating sharp content and storytelling, selling on Amazon can be overwhelming if you don’t have the experience and the knowledge.

‍That is when hiring an experienced agency can help!

‍

‍Why Hire An Amazon Agency?

‍

‍The main reason most businesses fail at selling on Amazon is because of their lack of experience, time, and correct strategies. As we’ve said before, selling on Amazon isn’t easy. Don’t think that because you’ve sold on other eCommerce platforms and achieved top sales, you can implement the same approach on this giant retailer.

Amazon has its own rules and policies that can get your account suspended or your ASINs delisted as well as its own unique tools.

Having an experienced agency that has already figured out how to sell on Amazon and has set other brands up for success, can save you a lot of headaches and money!
